blkcg: convert blkg_lookup_create to find closest blkg
There are several scenarios where blkg_lookup_create can fail. Examples
include the blkcg dying, request_queue is dying, or simply being OOM. At
the end of the day, most handle this by simply falling back to the
q->root_blkg and calling it a day.
This patch implements the notion of closest blkg. During
blkg_lookup_create, if it fails to create, return the closest blkg
found or the q->root_blkg. blkg_try_get_closest is introduced and used
during association so a bio is always attached to a blkg.
